using a .lib file
-
How do use lib file. Do i just have to declare the lib name in the link tab. How do i get the function names that are exposed by the library??
Instead of putting it in the link tab, you can also use:
#pragma comment(lib, "libfile")I suppose, if you have the DLL of the LIB file, you can view the dependencies from the "Depends" Visual Studio tool. It will list the functions exported. Hope this helps. * Don't wish it was easier, wish you were better! * -

The project compiles ok no errors there. Only when i add the lib file to the project and try to call the global function for that lib then i get loads of unresolved symbols errors. Any ideas how to deal with this or what i am doing wrong here. Thanks

I'm curiuos about this too. Could you expound upon "name mangling" and how to avoid it?
